This beautiful, tear drop handplane is made from sustainably grown spruce and rosewood offcuts from the production of Santa Cruz Guitar Company guitars. We've also incorporated redwood floor boards from the historic, Schwan Mansion built in the 1800s in Santa Cruz, California. Abalone inlay at the tail completes the package.

The hand strap is made with nylon and covered with offcuts from O'Neill Wetsuit product development, and the wood is shaped with our unique, ergonomic hand fit. The hardware is solid brass. 

You only need a single handplane on your leading arm for a great ride every time! This is a terrific conversation piece and bodysurfs like a dream.
